Meet the President

Meet Matt Moyer, Director Marketing & Sales, Comcast and President, Rocky Mountains. Here are five fun facts about Matt to help you get to know him better:  

Favorite TV Show?
30 Rock, The Office, Entourage, Monday Night Football…

Are you a cat or dog person?
Dog – we have a great hound dog named Daisy.

Favorite vacation spot:
We love to travel internationally and would return to Tuscany, Italy anytime to enjoy the great people, fantastic food and history of the area.       

Fun fact not many people know:
Somehow I managed to lock myself INSIDE a corporate apartment in central London while working on a project there.  I had to throw my keys out the window to a helpful, but complete, stranger who unlocked the door from the outside! 

What’s your favorite CTAM moment?
My favorite CTAM moment was this year’s national TeleSeminar program that featured our chapter’s Cable Apprentice business case competition.  Our live, nation-wide broadcast from the Comcast Media Center featured research and perspective on cord cutting from some talented University of Denver MBA students and a panel of accomplished senior cable executives.   I was so proud of all the hard work our team put into the event, providing relevant and timely educational programming to CTAM’s members. 

We know our members are stars! Did you meet an expert sculptor at the TeleSeminar? Did a guitar hero eat lunch with you at The CTAM Summit? Let us know! Members in the Crowd pays tribute to CTAM’s exceptional members. Send nominations to Lisa Jackson.
